That came over very well. I like the way the Style plays a bass note on every beat of the bar. What Style was this you used? Very busy. I'm worn out now!

Can you sing two notes at the same time? Wouldn't have thought it possible until I watched this video. Some of the comments from underneath the video: She is separating two sound vibrations in one voice. How is that even possible? As a vocalist, hand to my heart, this is the creepiest thing I've eve...
I Can't Help Falling In Love With You - played on Tyros 4. https://audio.com/hugh-ar/falling-in-love-t4 For the first verse I have used the Style on it's own, but for the second I have added in a Left Hand Voice . The Style plays just the same, but the harmony you hear depends on what inversion of ...
On most keyboards these days you can record directly to WAV (or MP3) on the keyboard so don't have to use external equipment to do it. Michael Clark ( mikeg ) plays a Tyros 2 and sings as well (he plays and sings for functions), so he has two parts of his recordings he has to keep an eye on .. the v...
Jacky has played another piece incorporating a Freeplay STYLE in conjunction with a normal rhythmic Style. The composer of this piece was Rolf Undsæt Løvland, a Norwegian composer, lyricist, arranger, and pianist. He formed the Celtic-Nordic group Secret Garden and wrote "Adagio" in Spain ...

Volume levels when recording When you are making a recording it's important that you keep your recording volumes down to a reasonable level. If anything, 'under record' your piece as the recording can always be put up to 'optimum levels' afterwards using a program like Audacity. If you 'over record...
An interesting video here analysing the Chords of John Lennon's "Imagine". In this video he talks not just about the chords in the piece, but where the notes are played (on a guitar). It's interesting to hear the difference between the chord harmony being played on higher notes, and lower ...
Pan, Mono, Stereo & Two Track Mono To appreciate this it's best to wear headphones. A MONO recording goes to one side only .. left or right. If this is coming from a left or right speaker then that is fine, as both ears hear the sound and will position the sound either to the left or to the rig...
Here's another example of how effective a Freeplay STYLE can be, this time providing a contrast between the opening bars (with a rhythm), the Freeplay Style .. and then returning to a rhythmic Style. Jacky ( ernest ) playing " Out Of Africa ". Do a right-click to open this up in a New Tab....
JT, I've added a bit to the post above re: Removing a Memory stick (Flash Drive) from a computer. Look for ** Note ** above. I'll be interested to know which ones work on your PSR970 and which ones don't. I would expect all the SFF1 ones to work. Any SFF2 ones that do not work I can convert to SFF1 ...
Here is another piece using a Freeplay STYLE, played by Jacky (ernest) ... Once Upon A Time In The West Do a right-click to open this up in a New Tab. https://app.box.com/s/eeg1cm8ch13yuq34ixdk6y4tq042q99j I have asked Jacky what Freeplay SYLES he has been using in the pieces he has played, but he h...
I just love how these Freeplay STYLES have been used. No good for dancing to .. but great for listening to! Here's one with Torben (from Denmark) accompanying his magnificent lady singer, Laura. Pie Jesu Do a right-click to open this up in a New Tab. https://app.box.com/s/8lhq833xun5yuxpfu9vqetl6eiu...
That's a really nice composition. You have some great sounding voices. First that guitar. Sounds real. And your saxophonist deserves a medal. So realistic! I'm sure the player has a lot to do with how these instruments sound.
Hi Ernest, Nice bit of fingerwork there. Really groovy. The word “groovy” originates in jazz slang, referring to music that's swinging, tight, funky, in the pocket. The analogy is to the groove in a vinyl record — the musicians are so together that it's like they're the needle guided by the groove. ...
When I started this topic I said that when using a Freeplay STYLE, although theoretically you can play 'freely' as the STYLE has no specific Rhythm, there is a problem when trying to follow it with a 'normal' Style with a fixed rhythm .. and that is with regard to getting your 'normal' Style to star...
I have done a Google Search for technicskn7000.com and get this: http://www.ar-group.org/Files/technics1.jpg .. but when I click on the LINK I get this: http://www.ar-group.org/Files/technics2.jpg However, when they say they have restored the original site as faithfully as possible, I think maybe th...
This Hymn (below) I have played using only a Freeplay Style (Ethereal Voices) .. but haven't kept the same sound all the way through. What I have done is to allocate a LEFT HAND VOICE (with the LEFT HOLD " ON ") to add to the sound produced by the Freeplay Style. I have kept the Freeplay S...
An evening with Rachmaninoff & Celine Dion I have found the videos below quite fascinating, and I have given this topic this title as it will take you all evening if you listen to it all! This is the story of Eric Carmen's song " All by Myself " ... Eric Carmen - All By MySelf (HQ) Ez...
